Release Notes · Drumagog 6

Drumagog 6.0.8

New

On Apple silicon Macs, Kit mode now uses far less CPU on Macs whose graphics can run it.
Drumagog now has a mono output on mono tracks in every DAW and format, as Drumagog 5 did.
On the Trigger page, press A to add a hit at the playback cursor, as + does, so you can tap hits in as you listen.
Right-click the THRESHOLD line or its label to lock it, so it can't be dragged by accident and clicks reach the hits near it.
A hit you add by hand now takes the level of the audio where you add it.
A GOG with three room channels now shows a Direct row for the close mic.
The Library page now opens on the GOG the selected drum is playing.
Any file BROWSE lists, WAV and other samples included, can now be a favorite, and PLACES starts with Favorites.
The THRESHOLD and DETAIL labels now let you see the waveform and hits under them.
The MIDI page's grid lines are brighter.

Drumagog 6.0.7

New

With AUTO on, the tom ranges now fit the toms in your song. Each tom plays its own sound and sends its own MIDI note, however the kit is tuned.
Each tom row and each hi-hat row can now play a GOG of its own. Pick one from the row's menu, or drag a GOG or one of its sounds onto the row from the sample list.
You can now choose which drum any tom or hi-hat hit plays. Select the hit and click the drum name beside its sample, or drag its note to another row on the MIDI page.
You can now select several hits at once and remove them or change their velocity together.
Fixed various GUI issues with displaying samples in kit mode
The Library page now shows which GOG is loaded.
BROWSE now has a search box on the Trigger page, and typing in the Library page's search filters BROWSE too.
The sample list on the Trigger page now scrolls smoothly with the mouse wheel.
RE-DETECT now keeps the changes you made to each hit.
